Dishtowel Angel

Here is
a great way to spruce up an ordinary gift and make it extra special. Instead of
simply wrapping dishtowels and pot holders make them into pretty kitchen
decorations. The recipient can then use them as decorations or take them apart
and use them for their original purpose, washing dishes.

What
you'll need:

1 dishtowel

1
washcloth

1 Pot
holder

Ribbon

Directions:

1. Fold
the dishtowel lengthwise into a fan, then fold the strip in half. Tie it off 2
or 3 inches from fold with ribbon, to make the head. Set this aside.

2. Fold
the washcloth into a fan for the arms. Set this aside.

3. Now
Fanfold the potholder with the loop on the top for the wings.

4. Place
the washcloth on top of the potholder and tie in the center with a ribbon. Lay
this (unit) on the table with the potholder down and the washcloth facing up.

5. Lay
dishtowel on top of potholder and washcloth.

6. Bring
the arms (washcloth) around front and tie together 1 inch from ends, for the
hands.
